The gaming industry since its platform inception has continued to advance and evolve since the emergence of classic home consoles like the PS2, but it has also left a number of strange things behind, and one of those things is manuals.

This person is “Kirkland,” as reported by the website KotakuHe spent over two decades, spending US$$ 40,000, digitally preserving all the evidence PS2 Located in the United States, the complete collection totals approximately 1,900 directories and everything is available for viewing through the existing archive.

Kirkland completed the massive mission just in time to celebrate the PS2's 22nd anniversary. The PS2 platform was released in the United States on October 26, 2000, and it was its comparison to previous generations that encouraged him to get kids to read what their parents read.

There are many of us who are nostalgic for these things and want our children to be able to enjoy what we did.

Well, at first it didn't seem like it was complete now, however, 'Kirkland's' work is very difficult and while their digital collection of PS2 guides is complete, they already started on the PS1, they have digitized 300 guides since the PS2's journey ended. Also on Kirkland's SNES, Game Boy and Atari 2600 to-do list is a growing library of guides that you will be able to refer to when playing classic games through services like NSO and PS Plus.
